Hollow shells of ZnO were formed by the assembly of nanoparticles using PEG 400 wherein PEG-400 acted like both a solvent and a structure directing agent. The structure, morphology and optical properties were characterized by using PXRD, SEM, TEM and absorption studies. The hollow shells were found to possess high crystallinity with a surface area of 8 m2 g?1. The assembly was formed by nanoparticles ranging from 50 to 60 nm, whereas the size of the hollow shell ranged from 500 nm to 1 micron. Photocatalytic activity of these nanostructures was studied using Rhodamine B (RhB) and methyl orange (MO). Nearly 99% of the RhB dye was found to be degraded in 60 min while for MO, the degradation was 97% in 50 min. The pseudo-first-order rate constant was calculated as 0.072 min?1 for the degradation of RhB and 0.075 min?1 for the degradation of MO. The hollow shells were found to exhibit significant bacterial inhibiting efficacy at a low concentration of the particles. Comparative studies were carried out for photodegradation of Rhodamine B dye and antibacterial activity using spherical particles of ZnO and assembly of particles to form rods of ZnO. The results indicated that these hollow nanostructures could be used as a potential catalyst for the removal of dyes from water and as an antibacterial agent. 相似文献
